Compress in UNIX ftp the uncompress in windows server
Hi all,

I need a shell script that will compress all the files in the UNIX box say /output/foldre/OUT/*.out.

1. I need to compress all the .out files present in this path.
2. The compressed files shuld be FTPed to Windows server say C:\Myfiles
3. Then the FTPed files should be uncompressed at the windows server.

Currently i am using compress -f /output/foldre/OUT/*.out command to compress the files. this is compressing good in deed but while uncompressing at windows server it do not contain any data.

Kindly help me
